[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1631466, member: 498"] You have to be pretty certain about your potential market and what they will buy and how much they are willing to pay. I have a good friend who did it for years. He was buying feeder cattle in western Washington and hauling them over the mountains to eastern Washington. Buying on Friday and selling the following Thursday. Had to have pretty much a full trailer to make it pay. He figured he needed to make $100 per calf for it to work out. He quit. Not because he wasn't making money. He got to hating that weekly trip over the mountain pass. [/QUOTE]
